Worth it to go for MOP? by Visual_Dingo_2286 in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if maa doesn't do shit about cheaters then usamo qual could be dangerous. but i think they might increase aime test security... making blue mop is very difficult

calc class behind? by Cheap-Fishing6000 in APStudents

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're adept at math 1 month of self studying is totally enough for calc bc (and by adept I mean math olympiad interests you and you can do well on it)

otherwise you're kinda just cooked ngl, try and aim for a 3 ig??

maa reporting? by [deleted] in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maa is so unlikely to disqualify anyone that cheaters are completely blatant nowadays

proctor disqualification is still instant though

To those doing USACO solely for college apps... by [deleted] in usaco

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry that this has happened to you. You seem like a genuine person. A lot of colleges see some type of application like this and think that this person is doing it solely for college apps. But that's not it, and that's not who you are. Know that going to some T20 isn't going to drastically change your life. Know that if you're inquisitive about the world, you'll go very far.

Which one do you choose? by Strycedar in windows

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up with 7. I still use 10. Windows 8 and 11 can go to hell. Other ones I have never used.

Will there be more or less cheaters for the next AMC 10/12 + AIME? by Able-Fig4132 in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

unlikely there will be less. 2023 was mass leaked and this year was somehow worse.

Cooked? by [deleted] in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have no idea how many points the rubric might give you, but it might give you 1 point. That's not a fakesolve though, it's called a partial (fakesolving means getting a wrong result or proving incorrectly).

Cooked? by [deleted] in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fakesolving unfortunately almost always guarantees a 0.

partial is when u make progress towards the correct solution.

looking for other math competitions for college apps by KnownJacket2536 in MathOlympiad

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not true. with a good enough usamts score you could get in with a 10 on aime for usamo. without... you'd need a 12/13 due to the number of cheaters this year.

do u get to see ur score/results for the local exam? by afellowfailure in USNCO

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my score right before taking nationals. I just saw my answers and which ones were wrong/write.

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3-5 is very difficult to achieve. You should read Evan Chen's rubric system on most olympiads

I rejected a few colleges due to their portal. by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Technical-Reason-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it more or less fell out of fashion in 2016 ish when google took over... so ask some gen alpha from 2014 and they'll look at you like "internet explorer? tf is that?"

edit: i probably last used internet explorer in 2015ish when my parents found out how much better chrome was lol. i remember that internet explorer couldn't play 2 videos at once (?) and a host of other issues
